An 80-year-old man who is building a mistress's house next to the house where his legal wife lives has sparked outrage among netizens.

According to JTBC's 'Case Chief' on the 15th, Mr. A, in his 80s, is currently building a house for his mistress, who is 12 years younger, next to his legal wife's house. Despite local residents advising him to build the mistress's house in another area, Mr. A reportedly said, "I have to build it here to monitor her affairs."

Mr. A claims, "My legal wife knows about the affair. I had her permission to cheat." However, his legal wife refuted this, saying, "I am a woman too. I hate my husband so much." Regarding why she has not divorced him, she said, "My health is poor, and I might die. That's why I refused."

The sick legal wife is ignored... even refused surgery payment

The legal wife, who is five years older than Mr. A, is currently in poor health. Although doctors recommended cataract surgery, Mr. A refused, saying, "We're all old; what surgery? There's no money for surgery." Her symptoms have worsened to the point where her vision is very blurry, but Mr. A still refuses to pay for the eye surgery, claiming he has no money.

Relatives of Mr. A intervened to stop the construction, but he responded arrogantly, "Are you jealous of my property?" He also warned the mistress, "You will be punished by heaven," but she shamelessly replied, "We have pure love. Don't be prejudiced." Moreover, the mistress has been visiting the construction site with a grandchild estimated to be in early elementary school.

Netizens who heard this story expressed anger with comments such as, "How can someone grow old so disgracefully?" "Building a house next door while ignoring the legal wife and not paying for her surgery," "They should divorce and split the property," "Grandpa, get a grip," "Both the husband and the mistress are equally disgusting," "Just hearing this makes me furious," and "Is there no one around to help?"
